NADIYA HUSSAIN, a former winner of the BBC’s Great British Bake Off, looks set for a face-off with her old show when she appears as host of a new cooking contest with the Yorkshire chef, Rosemary Shrager.

The Big Family Cooking Showdown is thought have been served up by the corporation as a rival to Bake Off when it returns to screens on Channel 4.

Hussain and Zoe Ball will search for the nation’s best family of cooks in the series, due to launch in the autumn on BBC2, with Ms Shrager as a judge.
